Haha wait are you not a real man ?

Of course, when my wife complains about me playing 8 hours a day I tell her to STFU and bring me another cold one

@A_PerfectGame said in Will the coronavirus effect content releases and overall supportof the game?:

Can we not talk about the corona virus on these threads. It’s already a way over abused topic everywhere. We get it there’s a a new virus. Everything closing is absurd. They didn’t do this for SARS, Ebola, H1n1 or any of the other MORE DEADLY virus’ they didn’t have medicine for. This is a concern but it’s blown way out of proportion because of an incompetent media and unintelligent masses.

That’s because you don’t read or get informed. The problem for Corona is that you can have the virus and be contagious 4 days BEFORE displaying symptoms, not the case for SARS and Ebola. H1N1 was an influenza. Just because authorities were being careless before doesn’t mean we should continue to act like it. With the overpopulation now, it will be more and more common. Panic? No, but not dismissive either.

No PCI is easy. Just wait and swing. “That’s real baseball”... still a video game bro, no amount of flexing will change that. Still a controller. Still dependant on player attributes. Still on your couch instead of the dugout. All you do is belittle people on these forums and stroke your ego with your performance on a video game on easy setting, to boot. I would be sad to be you.

I can't give you life-changing tips, had you posted this 2-3 weeks ago I would have said get 19 for cheap and start practicing. If you want to play competitive, put your hitting view in Strike Zone ("SZ"), or another view that's really close. You lose out on presentation but you'll get better quicker. Conquest is a good way to both practice and grind rewards. As others have posted, the market is the market; ie, hard to predict. I'd say don't get too emotionally attached to cards, since as the season progresses, better and better cards keep flooding the market. 19 was insanely easy to get diamonds, I expect 20 to be more of the same.

Have fun trying out different methods to make stubs: collections, market, events, exchanges, etc. Hang around here to get some pointers on the new meta(s), and enjoy. There is no wrong way to enjoy the content.

Small sample size but can already tell pitch accuracy is still terrible as well as umpires balls/strikes.

Geez Squish, all you do is complain... I played you already and you’re not a good player... at all... play something else?

Flu is 0,01% mortality rate, CV-19 2-2,5%. Spanish flu was 3,5%. It’s no joke, listen to Joe Rogan’s Monday podcast with the virus expert.

Eh, if it's only a RTTS thing, I don't think it hurts anybody. After all, only the user will see it since it's singleplayer.

If you give an inch, they'll want a mile.

So the answer is to never compromise on anything ever because everyone will always want a mile?

Sorry, I don't live my life that way.

There's nothing to compromise.... girls DO NOT play baseball.

I would amend that statement, because girls do play baseball, just not Major League baseball. Your statement is way to generalized.

Actually girls did play professional ball back in the 40's. This is a major league baseball game, not a fruity unicorn baseball game.

I can tell by your statement what kind of person you are.

Not wanting girls in an MLB game because of realism is fine,
but the "fruity unicorn" statement is all I need to know about your character.

You are correct, I am not a liberal.

Don't think politics have anything to do with your obvious little man syndrome. You should grab a beer with joshjays and celebrate all the things you hate.

I don't hate anything, and I don't care what anyone does in their free time. But simply put there is no place for women in the MLB.

Then we should also outlaw 45 year old 4'11 300lb CAPs right?

There doesn't have to be a place for women in your MLB. But taking the option away from girls and women who are enthusiastic about baseball and have to play as a man is just plain weird. It doesn't, wouldn't, and shouldn't affect you.

Exactly, EA NHL has it and no one died

I bought MW2 on my PS3 but the servers are decommissioned, they have to turn them back on, right?

The amount is disturbing. If you’re on the road and/or MLB park and the other guy senses a lag, squeeze time. Why not? The slow D/wrong defender guarantees a perfect bunt or hit on 50% of the plays. Boring as heck way to play.

@jrbufford1 said in You're down by three...:

I will say I invested a lot in my pen, and I will be cruising with kluber Oswalt or sale, and bring the pen in when the pitch count is over 85... all of a sudden my opponent “ wakes up “ and starts shelling my pen, night after night... I since have just been going to 2 starters of my rotation 90 prospect Mackenzie Gore and Bob Gibson, and lord and behold they have been closing great games for me... but Chapman, Franco, Rivera, dolittle and Giles have been lit up like crazy... hell if it gets to the 10th I warm up kluber or Oswalt whoever has less energy

Same; tried staying true to real life for fairness purposes, but unless they put RPs in with full energy and 75% confidence more than once in a blue moon, you’re seeing a starter if the game is close. I will now keep my SP in the game even if he’s yellow, as he’s better than LATE GAME SPECIALIST WITH 95 CLUTCH coming in the 7th. That’s the only comeback code/logic: the way they screw over relievers and make them useless

A new decade starts next year

That sounds eerily familiar.

It annoys me when people keep saying the decade begins with a 0, no you noobs, it begins with a 1.

So 1980 wasn’t part of the 80s? The year 1 AD would have started theoretically when? 1/1/1? Do you agree? But it took twelve months for 1 to be a year. Calendar starts 1/1/00 if you needed the unnecessary explanation of how years work. You have been in the 20s for almost four full months already, my friend

I hate agreeing with the troll, but in this instance he’s right. The 3rd millennium started in 2001, not 2000. There’s no Year 0.

Ok I did my research and turns out while you’re correct, he still is the worst. Confirmed

Oh, we are definitely in agreement there

why the hate on my Dodgers? Not our fault we produce star players . What do you want to play with a bunch of Reds, Twins, A's players????????????

No hate my friend. I'll run with any teams players that help me win. Just prefer it if those players play for the Reds lol

Yes, those poor Reds: Bench, Davis, Larkin, Morgan, Griffey Sr, Dibbs, Dunn, Foster...

I only have Torres and Snell in Fotf cards, rests are commons, so I stay away. Criteria for this one is lame, pretty sure not the only one in this situation. I have so little time to play, I don’t want to spend that time in M2O or Showdowns...

Throwing errors?? Turn button accuracy on and be done with it
